On the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Kim Zolciak claimed she was getting death threats after NeNe Leakes called her a "racist" following their roach video drama! The blonde star also claimed she spent $20,000 sending her costar cease and desist letter.

As Breaking Celebrity News readers know, the fight came after Zolciak's daughter, Brielle Biermann, posted a video of insects crawling around Leakes' bathroom. It caused a major rift between Leakes and Zolciak, and on Sunday's episode, all the women weighed in.

"Brielle, kids should stay out of the drama between us women, Kandi Buruss said. "I love Brielle but your daughter can be sassy but I would not allow her to be on social media going back and forth with grown women."

Zolciak went on a rampage against Leakes after Sheree Whitfield caught her up on the Barcelona trip drama.

"Nene's been using her back for 40 years as a f**king stripper she doesn't have that problem."

Zolciak told Whitfield that she was getting death threats after Leakes bashed her for being a "racist." We've had to hire security, we've had people come to my f**king gate. She wants to pull the race card? That's the devil b*tch. She has spent so many years trying to sabotage my name. B*tch, now you're coming for my kids? The whole family is racist? Now you're coming for my family you mother**ker?"

Zolciak defended herself. "There's not a racist bone in my body. Not me, not my husband, not my children — never have. I just need her to understand that I'm f**king serious." She later told her pal that she spent $20,000 to send Leakes a cease and desist letter following their feud.

"I burned it up with a lighter," Leakes said about the letter.

And Whitfield took Zolciak's side. "NeNe has hit way below the belt."

Leakes explained why she was so angry about the roach video. "You don't do bullsh*t like that and expect people not to respond. They really tried to hurt me. Or discredit my home."

"It sounds very racial when you are speaking to an African American person about roaches because people feel like you are associating that with the ghetto or trash. Black people do not receive that well. It was mean, it was disgusting."

Leakes continued, "Do I believe Kim is a racist? Some of the things that she has said will definitely make you go 'hmmm.'"

"I think Brielle is a beautiful girl. Your kid cannot talk to an adult using foul language and then you expect me to say nothing back."

As Breaking Celebrity News readers know, Leakes was also embroiled in another scandal earlier in the season, when she told a comedy tour heckler that she hoped she'd get raped by her Uber driver!
